Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Block-Based Multi-Scale Background Extraction AlgorithmSeyed Hashem Davarpanah, Fatimah Khalid, Maryam GolchinProblem statement: To extract the moving objects, vision-based surveillance systems subtract the current image from a predefined background image. The efficiency of these systems mainly depends on accuracy of the extracted background image. It should be able to adapt to the changes continuously. In addition, especially in real-time applications the time complexity of this adaptation is a critical matter.
